Calculation Information
The Mifflin-St Jeor Equation is used to calculate your maintenance calorie intake in this calculator. The "adjusted calories" section allows for a slight calorie surplus when selecting "bulking" (by adding 300 calories) or a deficit when selecting "cutting" (by subtracting 300 calories). However, you have the option to ignore this section and use only the calculated maintenance calories for a more drastic cut or bulk. These calorie and macronutrient goals should be met daily.
Keep in mind that this is a rough estimate and may require adjustments to better suit your body's needs.
